Setbacks protect water quality by reducing runoff, surface water responsible for carrying pollutants into lakes, rivers and streams. The 50 foot primary building setback helps to maintain a healthy buffer zone between our activtivies and the lake. With appropriate and abundant plants int he waterfront buffer zone, excess nutrients and sediments that come from fertilizers, driveways, roads and human activities will be largely absorbed and used. Clean water benefits all lakefront property owners by maintaining the value of the lake for recreational purposes.
